Summary/Abstract The Southeastern Medical Scientist Symposium (SEMSS) was established in 2010 by students from the University of Alabama at Birmingham (UAB), Emory University, and Vanderbilt University Medical Scientist Training Programs (MSTPs). The three programs have co-hosted the symposium for six years with the location rotating among Birmingham (2010, 2013), Atlanta (2011, 2014), and Nashville (2012, 2015). The objective of the symposium is to encourage a collaborative and interdisciplinary educational environment within the Southeast region of the United States. This fully student- organized symposium seeks to foster connections between the MD/PhD students at multiple institutions across the Southeast, exposing students to trends, challenges, and opportunities inherent in careers of academic physicians. Future SEMSS meetings will continue to rotate locations between Birmingham, Atlanta, and Nashville in order to optimize regional student participation. The program of each SEMSS has and will continue to include keynote speaker presentations, multiple topic-specific breakout sessions, MSTP student research oral and poster sessions, and social events. The breakout sessions are divided into sessions of interest to MD/PhD students, undergraduates, and residents/fellows. The meetings span two days, with content starting in the early afternoon on a Saturday and ending in the early afternoon on Sunday. The target audience for the SEMSS is MD/PhD students in training programs in the southeast and residents/fellows, MD students, and undergraduate students at southeastern institutions who have an interest in future careers as physician-scientists. An additional purpose of this symposium is to expose undergraduate students to physician-scientist trainees and faculty in order to foster excitement about careers in academic medicine and increase the pipeline of future physician-scientists. We think that this additional focus on undergraduate students from the region is critical to our purpose of enhancing the pipeline of students from backgrounds underrepresented in medicine (URIM), as according to US News and World Report, nine of the top twenty historically black colleges and universities (HBCUs) are located in Alabama, Georgia, Tennessee, Mississippi, or Louisiana.

摘要/摘要 东南医学科学家研讨会（SEMSS）成立于2010年，由来自东南大学的学生发起 阿拉巴马大学伯明翰分校 (UAB)、埃默里大学和范德比尔特大学医学院 科学家培训计划 (MSTP)。三个项目联合主办了六届研讨会 地点在伯明翰（2010、2013）、亚特兰大（2011、2014）和纳什维尔之间轮换 （2012年，2015年）。研讨会的目的是鼓励跨学科的合作 美国东南部地区的教育环境。这位完全的学生—— 组织的研讨会旨在促进多个医学博士/博士生之间的联系 东南部各地的机构，让学生接触到固有的趋势、挑战和机遇 在学术医生的职业生涯中。未来的 SEMSS 会议将继续轮换地点 伯明翰、亚特兰大和纳什维尔，以优化地区学生的参与。该计划的 每个 SEMSS 已经并将继续包括主题演讲、多个特定主题 分组会议、MSTP 学生研究口头和海报会议以及社交活动。这 分组会议分为医学博士/博士生、本科生和博士生感兴趣的会议 居民/研究员。会议为期两天，内容从下午早些时候开始 周六至周日下午结束。 SEMSS 的目标受众是 东南部培训项目的医学博士/博士生以及住院医师/研究员、医学博士生和 对未来职业感兴趣的东南大学本科生 医生科学家。本次研讨会的另一个目的是让本科生了解 医师科学家实习生和教师，以激发他们对学术职业的兴趣 医学并增加未来医师科学家的渠道。我们认为这个额外的重点 对来自该地区的本科生的关注对于我们加强人才培养渠道的目的至关重要 据《美国新闻》和《美国新闻与世界报道》报道，来自医学领域代表性不足的学生（URIM） 世界报告显示，前 20 名历史悠久的黑人学院和大学 (HBCU) 中的 9 所位于 阿拉巴马州、佐治亚州、田纳西州、密西西比州或路易斯安那州。
